Not a Feminist Rant | Lily Vellekamp | TEDxYouth@SRDS

Lily Vellekamp, a high school sophomore, has strong words for those of you who think that feminism equates to man-hating. Her passion is firey and her words are sharp, this talk is sure to make you question some assumptions you have about gender equality. Lily Vellekamp is a high school sophomore here at SRDS and works at a burger restaurant in her spare time. She grew up in New Jersey, is an only child, and lives with her mom. She plays six musical instruments and desperately wants a pet bunny. Her talk today on the TEDx stage presents her feminist view of the society she lives in, but she is not here to rant. Instead, find yourself inspired and engaged by Lily’s passion and fiery words during her second talk at TEDxYouth@SRDS.
